(Compile tested).
futex_find_get_task:
if (p->state == EXIT_ZOMBIE || p->exit_state == EXIT_ZOMBIE)
return NULL;
I can't understand this. First, p->state can't be EXIT_ZOMBIE. The ->exit_state
check looks strange too. Sub-threads or tasks whose ->parent ignores SIGCHLD go
directly to EXIT_DEAD state (I am ignoring a ptrace case). Why EXIT_DEAD tasks
should be ok? Yes, EXIT_ZOMBIE is more important (a task may stay zombie for a
long time), but this doesn't mean we should explicitely ignore other EXIT_XXX
states.
